Datasheet: NM-5500-2F

5 GHz ISM Band – 2×2 MIMO Broadband Transceiver with Power Boosters

Designed in the compact miniPCI-Express form factor, the NM-5500-2F are Rugged, Long Range, 2×2 MIMO streams, IEEE 802.11n compliant Radio subsystems. They are developed specifically for applications requiring high throughput over very long range in the rugged environments. The NM-5500-2F consists of a high throughput 802.11n radio and 2x bi-directional, tiny Power Amps carefully tuned and calibrated together to deliver high performance. The NM-5500-2F radio operates on 5.180 GHz~5.825 GHz bands. Doodle Labs offers a complete family of models optimized for different applications.

Target Applications

The NM-5500-2F is ideal for applications that require wireless links with very high throughput. With high gain antennas, the user can expect to get range of over 25 Km.

* It is advantageous to use the smallest Channel Bandwidth that can support the Throughput requirements. Smaller bandwidths provide more channels to choose and help avoid interference issues. The system’s SNR is higher at smaller Channel Bandwidths and Range is longer.

3.3 Volts from miniPCI-E interface for radio 3~4.5V for FES. Optional DC-DC converter available for 6V~38V power supply.

Power Consumption

Total 18W (16W @ Max power for FES, in data transfer mode on all chains + 2W for radio module) Total 12W (10W @ 20 dBm power for FES in continuous data transfer mode on all chains + 2W for radio module) 1.2W total power in continuous data receive mode

Shield case temperature range (Operating)

-40°C to +85°C The System’s thermal design should ensure that the transceiver’s shield case temperature is maintained within these specifications. Prism-FES can be mounted away from the host CPU board for better thermal design

Designed and Verified to meet various regulatory requirements. Formal testing and approval is required based on the Integrator’s particular host platform. The Integrator is also responsible for obtaining any other required regulatory approvals in target markets for the finished product. Doodle Labs can offer assistance for compliance testing of the System Integrator’s host platform.
